MTV Presents....Prince? WTF?

Last night, I was watching MTV (Australia) (Please don't hate on me).

They had an ad on for the Australian tour, and it declaired

"MTV presents Prince Live In Australia"

What are MTV's involvement in this tour? To my knowledge, none.

WTF is going on? Anyone know?

It can't be possible. MTV loath Prince.

Arn't Universal part of the Coca-Cola group?

If so, this would not surprise me in the slightest.

Anyone remember the sponsors of the Act II tour in '93?

Out of the blue in 1996 MTV aired the Emancipation special, despite several years of ignoring him. It can happen again.

Isn't it funny that because Prince was with Arista. MTV kissed his ass lol

I have on Tape a whole LONG career description.. totally kissing his ass.. even in the 1990's .. EVEN after he left warner bros?

Kurt Loder did a 5150 I think and he just made Prince sound amazing..

BUT months/years before they ripped on him.. and NOW they are back to thinking he basically sucks

:LOL:

so fake.. U sign over ur shit.. they put u on every magazine and on MTV, ect,ect,ect

They know that Prince will expolde in 2004 so they are placing their bets early...with all the 80's wannabees around they realise Prince is the real deal...

Is it so bad that MTV is presenting Prince?

I think he can not be presented enough... let them!
At least there will be something decent on TV again.

Screw all the 15-yearold-pimple-faced-look-at-me-I'm-in-a-metal-band-bullshit

And no I don't hate metal, I just hate this "happy"-metal.

And while we're asking questions - what's the big deal about 2004? I presume it's something to do with Prince regaining his masters... is this confirmed??? or just a rumour...

Kurt Loder did that fantastic Rolling Stone review of Purple Rain which really summarized the excitement over Prince at that time.

Kurt loves Prince, he and Kurt had alot of fun during the 1999 Interview for Rave Un2...and Prince even wrote him an open letter after the experience on his NPG Website.

Kurt wrote great reviews on Prince's Music for years, and even for the Mtv Special 1515!

So I don't think Kurt and Prince have a personal issue with oneanother, perhaps everyone thinks so...because one person says..Prince should go back to doing sexy videos...come on, get over it, its 2003!

I'd Love to see our man on MTV again, I'm so tired of the same videos by Pink and Blink 182 and those Avril Lasanga...and Sum 41 a-holes...


Its time to get FUNKY AGAIN with The PRINCE OF PURPLE!!!
He's still got the look, moves and the great music...PRINCE IS THE SHIZNIT!

This will bring more exposure for Prince and NPG newer music and NPGMC!

Prince was the FIRST black artist aired on MTV. Whenever prince is in NY, MTV is usually around in some form interviewing those in attendance.
